A thread yesterday talked about how the jihadis were going to attack websites of those who stood in the way of jihad.
FR was mentioned.
This morning, I'm starting to get a lot of "502" errors here.
If I find the link from yesterday I'll post it below.
Anyone else having this problem?
I was making a joke back atcha. I guess it screwed up. ;^(
Whoops, you meant the FReeporette post. Thanks, I did that about two years ago and haul it out whenever FR withdrawel is mentioned.
After further research:
We are hearing everyday about Islamofascists threatening the infidels to convert to Islam or die, the statement becomes:
I will not convert to Islam or I will not become a Moslem.
Arabic meaning of sentences depends on the context or subjects. A sentence could convey different meanings depending on a variety of subjects.
I believe this is the correct statement for the prevailing context.

That's so 7th century. Just the sort of language you need for the prcise communication a high tech society requires.

LOL! You're right, this is why students in Arab countries learn Medicine, Engineering, Science, High Tech, etc in English, French or German (rare).
Arabic is a very rich and difficult language. Just to give you an example :
Count how many combinations of tenses and forms there are for verb "to be". I counted in the high teens or low twenties. Maybe I'm wrong; however, it can't approach the opposite number for an Arabic verb!
Are you ready? SURE???
Three hundred fifty (350) combinations of tenses and forms!! I bet you, only Arabic scholars, who know nothing in their lives but Arabic, would know such huge numbers!!
I thought this is good for a laugh. LOL
BUMP!
